WARNING: Do not use accessory seat covers. The use of
accessory seat covers may prevent the deployment of the side
airbags and increase the risk of injury in an accident.

WARNING: Do not lean your head on the door. The side airbag
could injure you as it deploys from the side of the seatback.

WARNING: Do not attempt to service, repair, or modify the
airbag SRS, its fuses or the seat cover on a seat containing an
airbag. See your Mazda dealer.

WARNING: All occupants of the vehicle should always wear
their safety belts even when an airbag SRS is provided.

How does the side airbag system work?

The design and development of the
side airbag system included
recommended testing procedures
that were developed by a group of
automotive safety experts known as
the Side Airbag Technical Working
Group. These recommended testing
procedures help reduce the risk of
injuries related to the deployment of
side airbags.

The side airbag system consists of
the following:

An inflatable nylon bag (airbag)
with a gas generator concealed
behind the outboard bolster of
the driver and front passenger
seatbacks.

A special seat cover designed to allow airbag deployment.

The same warning light, electronic control and diagnostic unit as used
for the front airbags.

Two crash sensors located on the lower portion of the b-pillar (one on
each side of the vehicle).
